Excerpt: It's compact, easy to carry and the battery life is great. The GPS function is amazing and the quality of the pictures is excellent too. I have no complaints about this camera, since it does the job pretty well. I love it.

Great pictures.

Summary: Love this little camera! I am an amateur photographer and have had many different point and shoot cameras. This one by far has been my favorite. Still small enough to fit in my purse but capable enough to take on my most recent trip to Africa. My photos were comparable to people who had those large lenses. This camera has a 20 times zoom that gave me many clear shots from a distance. So often with a long zoom the picture isn't precise but this camera performs very well!

Summary: I needed something small, yet takes good pics. Canon came through on this one. I updated the Firmware without any issues. I have the 1700 batteries and they last longer. I put in a 64GB SDHC Card and it works great. No problems to date.

Fantastic Camera

Summary: I love this camera - it zooms better than models which cost four times as much. I had a previous model which I dropped & broke (sadness) and loved the camera so much I bought the exact same one as a replacement.

It's the BEST!

Summary: HEY! People, I have tried other cameras over the last 44 + years (started at age 11) and I always come back to Canon. For the last 6 years I have gotten 3 Canon PowerShots. I use mine DAILY, having it with me constantly, I put it through a LOT in two years! Most people would probably take at least 4-6 years to put it through as much as I do. Photograpy is a Hobby for me ... but one I could hardly live without, as it is my way of expressing myself.

Great small camera

Summary: So far I have enjoyed the camera. I took some long distance shots of birds across the pond in my back yard, and they came out much better than expected. Still have not shot any video's but I am sure with Canon's reputation, they will come out great.
